I recentlly converted some web services to 2.0. So far everything has worked
great with the exception of one of the functions in an AD service.

the following code:
string sUser = HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["LOGON_USER"];

Worksk fine if debugging in VS 2005 but when I publish to the server. An
empty string is returned. I have tried to catch an error and does not appear
to be one.

This does not work for me

'System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal' does not contain a definition for
'Name'

What form of authentication are you using in your application? Forms?
Windows? What is the IIS application configured to use? Anonymous? Integrated?
